I did that with my IV machine the one time I was in the hospital. It would start incessantly beeping when the fluids needed changing, so I learned how to silence the alarm (by watching the nurses do it the first time). When the alarm went off, I'd call the nurse and then silence the machine. When it went off at 3am I did that and by the time the nurse came by I was already asleep. She saw what I did and got angry at me. Re-awakened me responded badly to that and words were exchanged. She didn't bother me for the rest of the night at least (and we made up in the morning, when I was awake enough to be rational).
